December 3, 201411 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 2, 2014 -> 08:24 PM) Indiana should always play at home in the challenge. Alma Mater 1. Current employer 0. Thanks for living up to my trash talk to the Pitt students earlier this week, Hoosiers .
December 3, 201411 yr Man I hope we keep this game close. We appear to be very overmatched on paper at this point.
December 3, 201411 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 2, 2014 -> 08:48 PM) Brick city in orange and blue Fixed. Illinois getting blown out
December 3, 201411 yr Three hacks on breakaways no calls. Gonna be a rough night if we can't get those.
December 3, 201411 yr Illini open up with a 7 0 run to cut it to 6. Sorry rock thought we'd be joining you in the misery line.

December 3, 201411 yr Did not expect that from IU. Best performance of the year. Yogi and Blackmon didn't even do that well.
December 3, 201411 yr Egwu is such a horrific basketball player. I have 0 idea how he hasn't improved 1 but in 4 years.

He was really f***ing awful as a freshman. Bad hands is a basketball player killer (see also Kwame Brown). It really is too bad Darius Paul f***ed up, sure would be nice to have him backing up Egwu this year.
December 3, 201411 yr Already in the bonus at 12 min. Turning it off. Everything about this game is garbage.
December 3, 201411 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 2, 2014 -> 09:34 PM) Illinois will miss Abrams in the long run since it means Tate plays. Illinois will also miss Abrams when their starting PG goes 1-10 while going 1-7 from 3. The illini should have probably played Tate more in this game, but not with Colbert and Black out there with him. The rotations need to be tuned up a bit.

He was dreadful defensively tonight and teams only have to guard 4 players when he is on the court.

He was dreadful defensively tonight and teams only have to guard 4 players when he is on the court. 1-10 with 1 assist is pretty awful. Starks cost the team possessions with just terrible shot selection. I'm not saying Tate played well by any means, but I would have rather watched him more with Nunn, Hill, and Rice than Starks tonight. All in all, they were both terrible.

The answer is not playing a PG at time. Tate isn't a Big 10 level guard and if he didn't play for Simeon in high school he wouldn't have been offered a scholarship.

He did it at points last year and he looks even better so far this year.
